"Reporting to the Grand Supreme Elder, Xue Mei has been busy with the matter of eliminating the blood energy beasts in the Blood Forest. She didn't invite the Grand Supreme Elder at all!"
Xue Mei said with a face full of bewilderment when she heard the Grand Supreme Elder reprimanding her.
An angry shout came from outside as soon as Xue Mei finished speaking.
"Junior Sister, you're too forgetful. You were the one who told me to invite the Grand Supreme Elder to the city lord's mansion three days ago. Why are you saying that you didn't invite the Grand Supreme Elder now?"
As the voice sounded, Bai Chen and the other seven people — who had followed closely behind the Grand Elder — walked into the hall and appeared in front of Xue Mei.
Xue Mei's face was full of shock when she saw the seven people behind Bai Chen. She exclaimed, "Didn't you all go to the Blood Forest to kill the blood energy beasts? Why did you all turn back? Where's Qin Feng? "
Seeing the shock on Xue Mei's face, the white-robed youth, Qing He, walked in front of her with a gloating smile and said: "Reporting to City Lord Xue, when we entered the Blood Qi Forest, I suddenly remembered that I still had something to do, so I turned back halfway. As for that Qin Feng, didn't he say that killing the Blood Qi Demon Beasts was his job? We gave him the chance to kill the beasts and make a name for ourselves! "
"What! You actually let Qin Feng go to the Blood Forest alone! "
Qing He said in a humiliating tone when he heard Xue Mei's solemn exclamation, "City Lord Xue, you're exaggerating. We did this to fulfill Qin Feng's reputation as a hero!"
"You, you two-faced scoundrels! Despicable! Scram! Despicable scum like you don't have the right to stand in the Blood Forest's hall! "
A frivolous smile appeared on Qing He's face when he heard Xue Mei's angry shout. He took out the piece of paper that Xue Mei had signed before they left and said, "Qin Feng is a hero who is willing to help Blood Energy City eradicate the blood energy magical beasts. City Lord Xue, you are also a hero who is willing to sell your body to raise funds for the citizens of Blood Energy City! They are all famous heroes! "
"What?! Selling my body! Qinghe, what nonsense are you spouting? Who sold themselves?! "
Amidst Xue Mei's angry roar, Bai Chen took the promissory note from Qing He's hand and handed it to the Grand Supreme Elder with both hands. She said, "Grand Supreme Elder, this is the contract that Junior Sister signed with Qing He!"
After saying that, he purposely said to Xue Mei with admiration, "Junior Sister! I'm ashamed of what you've done for the people of Blood Qi City. In the future, Senior Sister will definitely tell the people of Blood Qi City about how you sold yourself to save their lives! "
After hearing Bai Chen's words, Xue Mei suddenly recalled what Qin Feng had told her before they left the hall. He told her to be careful of Bai Chen.
Xue Mei finally came to a realization when she recalled what Qin Feng had said. She was so angry that her eyes turned white. She shouted angrily, "Bai Chen, you … you're so vicious! Junior Sister has always treated you well. I didn't expect you to set me up like this! "
After reading the promissory note, the Grand Supreme Elder also looked at Xue Mei in shock. He said in a dignified voice, "Xue Mei, since you've made up your mind and are willing to sacrifice yourself for the people of Blood Energy City, I will still be proud that you're a member of the Blood Energy Sect!"
Faced with the frivolous Qing He, Xue Mei said in shock, "No! No! Grand Supreme Elder, they're the ones who conspired to set me up. Please help Xue Mei! "
"Set me up!"
The Grand Supreme Elder had a dignified expression. After shouting angrily, he threw the promissory note beside Xue Mei and shouted, "See for yourself if it's a set-up or not!"
The terrified Xue Mei picked up the promissory note that the Grand Supreme Elder had thrown on the ground. She took a closer look and realized that it was the promissory note that she had signed with them to kill the Blood Energy Demonic Beast before they left. However, the content had nothing to do with killing the Blood Energy Demonic Beast.
"Bai Chen, w-why did you set me up? Why!?"
Upon hearing Xue Mei's angry shout, Bai Chen put on an innocent expression and said, "Junior Sister, I can't wait to dote on you. How could I bear to set you up? I didn't force you to sign this promissory note! Didn't I? "
While Xue Mei and Bai Chen were arguing, the Clear River Sword Sect's Sect Master, Qing Shanzi, who had been silent all this while, picked up the promissory note that Xue Mei had dropped. He brought it to the Grand Supreme Elder and said, "Grand Supreme Elder, can Qing Shanzi take the people away?"
The Grand Supreme Elder looked at the black and white words in Qing Shanzi's hand and nodded silently.
Upon seeing the Grand Supreme Elder nod silently, Qing Shanzi ordered, "Take the people away! Let's go! "
At Qing Shanzi's order, two disciples walked in front of Xue Mei. Xue Mei suddenly recalled the promissory note that she had signed with Qin Feng. It was a piece of paper that she had written at the last minute. The content was written by herself, and it was the same as the notice that had been posted in Blood Qi City. As long as Qin Feng could kill the Blood Energy Forest's Demonic Beast, she would marry Qin Feng. Moreover, the entire Blood Qi City would belong to Qin Feng.
Xue Mei, who suddenly thought of this, shouted angrily, "I'll see who dares!"
After shouting angrily, Xue Mei took out the promissory note that she had signed with Qin Feng. Furthermore, she had looked at the seven people and Qin Feng in front of her. In her heart, Qin Feng was the person she was willing to entrust her life to.
This was because there was only one Blood Energy Demonic Beast in the Blood Energy Forest, and there were eight people who went in at the same time to kill it. Hence, there was a rule in Blood Qi City that was based on the serial number on the promissory note.
In other words, if the eight people worked together to kill the Blood Energy Demonic Beast, then Xue Mei would be married to the person who had the serial number on the promissory note.
At this point, Xue Mei knew that as long as she handed the promissory note to the Grand Supreme Elder, and as long as Qin Feng killed the Blood Energy Demonic Beast and returned to the City Lord's Mansion within 24 hours, not to mention signing a slave contract with Qing He, even a life and death contract would be useless.
After shouting angrily at the two disciples who were approaching her, Xue Mei walked in front of the Grand Supreme Elder and handed the promissory note that she and Qin Feng had signed to the Grand Supreme Elder. She said, "Elder, please take a look. This is also the promissory note that Xue Mei and Qin Feng signed today!"
When the Grand Supreme Elder took the promissory note and saw the serial number on the promissory note, she suddenly shouted angrily at the two Clear River Sword Sect disciples who were approaching Xue Mei, "Back off, back off now!"
After shouting angrily, the Grand Supreme Elder read out the serial number on the promissory note that Xue Mei had handed to her with a stern expression. She then scolded, "Everything will be decided after 24 hours. As long as Qin Feng can kill the Blood Energy Demonic Beast within 24 hours, the people of the Clear River Sword Sect will have to leave Blood Qi City unconditionally. At the same time, the slave contract that Xue Mei signed will become useless!"
